Unlike the…read morelonger engrained and well known schools in our area, Bright Minds opened in 2019 and we are fortunate to share that we are their longest tenured family to date. Our now second grade son started preschool beginners there pre covid, they handled covid protocols so smoothly barely any hiccups days off or risk throughout all of the years going through peak covid times. They have not only sent my son to Kindergarten beyond prepared and ready to excel but my daughter now who is about to graduate this year and go to K next year is writing already and excelling in all of her skills. We can't believe how much she is learning not only academically but also socially. Miss Luci is an incredible hands on director. The teachers have all been there for years like barely any turnover. They are trul tremendous and deserve every recognition.

My husband and I knew after only a few minutes that this was the place for our children. The…read moredirector and assistant director met with us and gave us a tour and we loved their kind and gentle manner. The classrooms are impecable with a balance of learning toys and fun toys. They understand that kids while it is important that they learn their ABC's also need to have fun, explore and create. The Positive Discipline Method that they use has made such a difference for our family. They truly are partners when it comes to raising your kids. They hold monthly meetings on different subjects which has helped us reinforce at home the same principles that they use in the classroom. Our daughter had a few "rough edges" when she entered school this past fall and 9 months later she has become a warm, loving and caring little girl. They have hosted seminars like "How to stop yelling at your kids" which my husband and I both attended. I can't praise this school enough and the teachers are A+++.. The classroom size is small enough so that all the children feel important and appreciated. If I were to sum up the main reasons I love Central Nursery school it would be that they emphasize the fundamentals that children need in order to become considerate, kind, and confident young adults, as well as, prepare them academically for kindergarten.

Do not recommend this place for first time daycare kids…read more Neither the teachers nor the director is prepared to handle new kids. Will let the kid cry it out in their chair starting from Day 1. No compassion showed towards kids, nor the ability to teach kids. They can only handle daycare ready kids. So if your kid is new, be prepared to pick them up by 10am, since the crying new kid is disturbing the other children. Also, have backup child care, since the school can remove the child with no notice whatsoever.

Can't say enough about the great care that Miss Alice, Miss Katie and the team provided for my kids. Especially through the pandemic creating a safe, clean and fun environment for all. Weekly themes and activities. Don't think they promote as much as they do for the kids such as bringing in external music, drama and sports programs, holiday shows, family days, and summers filled with daily fun activities including Monday guests like petting zoos, magicians, ice cream and water ice trucks etc, sports days, fun house/water slides and field trips to places like the zoo, aquarium, legoland and so much more. Also a great community of families that attend too. Check out their FB page to get a glimpse of some of the activities and energy. If you're in the Oaks area, they have a sister school that is also great and has been around for some time! We spent a summer there prior to WELC's opening!

Our son has been at CBA for almost 4 years.  We couldn't be happier with the staff, his development…read moreand the friendships we've made.  It's a wonderful preschool.  The staff is always friendly and responds to any questions promptly.  The teachers are great.  Our son will be finishing up with pre-kindergarten shortly and we can already see that he'll be well prepared to start kindergarten in the Fall.  CBA offers many extracurricular activities and has a lot of fun after class functions that parents/families can participate in.  I would recommend CBA to anyone in the area.  Our son was previously in another daycare in the area and CBA was miles ahead of them.  One last note, they provide snacks and lunches which is a huge benefit.  Our son enjoys mostly all of what they offer.

I highly recommend Chesterbrook Academy! The environment is…read morealways clean, the classrooms are well-organized, and the teachers and staff are truly professional. Mrs Sara, Liz, Caitlin, Mrs Susman, Mrs brin and so many more go over and beyond for the families of Chesterbrook Academy. Safety at Chesterbook is clearly a top priority for the children. I wholeheartedly recommend Chester brook Academy. I also couldn't be happier with the growth and care the children received here. I've seen the curriculum and attention provided at every level of the center, and I've been impressed every step of the way. The kids literally run into the center each day, excited to see their teachers and friends. The staff also does an amazing job preparing the children for Kindergarten. I truly see the staff as an extension of the family. I am so thankful to know them all.

My rating is strictly based on my beginner adult swim class with Bill. I had an incredible time and…read morelearned a lot from Bill. Week after week, I became a better and better swimmer. It was well worth the cost for me! The main con I had was that the women's locker room was disgusting. The moment you walked in, you could immediately smell the urine. It was awful, I would hold my breath every time. The showers were also gross and had very weak water pressure. The entire 2 months of my swim classes, the machine to dry your swimsuit was broken until the very last day of my class it worked again.

You do need to pay membership to use the facility, but I think it is valuable. They keep the facilities clean, and the programs are with quality and provide limited value to everyone.

Our daughter has attended Play and Learn Bryn Mawr since January 2018 and so far, we have had an…read moreoverwhelmingly good experience here. Susan, the director, has been very responsive and accommodating, and our daughter's teachers are loving and involved. I have found the building and outside area to be clean (the playground area is awesome), and I will echo one of the other parents that the teachers in the other rooms go out of their way to engage with parents and children who are not even assigned to their rooms. There is a nice sense of community here. In particular, Miss Saamara in the Cuddlebug room is outstanding. She is incredibly warm and sweet. Our child had some issues with separation anxiety at first and Miss Saamara would take her and walk her around the room while holding her, showing her pictures and talking to her in a soothing voice as I left. I would often pause for a minute outside the room to make sure my child stopped crying, and Miss Saamara always had her calmed within a minute or two. Now that she has adjusted to her classmates and teachers, our child is always happy and barely notices when we arrive to pick her up - she would rather keep playing! One of the other things I really liked about this program is that most of the teachers have been here much longer than other programs: 5-15 years. That made me very comfortable that the director knows the teachers well and that they are in this career because they love what they do. The reason for the 4 out of 5 star rating is that we have had two minor issues here, but I feel that these has been handled well by the teachers/director and were positively resolved. (a few late arrivals by a teacher which caused me to be late to work and one incident where I picked up my daughter and she had developed a high fever but I was not called. The teachers had not noticed due to it being about 80 degrees out and the children were outside playing.) Overall, I felt these incidents were minor and I felt the teachers and director responded quickly and appropriately to my concerns. I think that as we get more time under our belt here (we have only been enrolled 6 months) and no further issues arise, I would be very comfortable amending this rating to a 5 star.

The director is always responsive and the teachers are caring, with many holding degrees in early childhood education. My daughter has grown and learned so much at her time "at school" and comes home saying new words and signing new signs and singing new songs almost every day. Most days she wants to keep playing when I come to pick her up. I've recommended this location to other friends looking for child care centers - we're happy with our decision to go with P&L in Bryn Mawr and look forward to our daughter continuing to grow and learn throughout her time there. There is a wait list so I'd suggest checking it out and getting on the list as soon as possible.
